The problem is to gather all the data without perfomance downgrade. It's easily customisable but can't so easily be implemented as a universal feature..

I committed the code yesterday, it should be included as Host Option to turn it on/off and without a performance Downgrade.

The problem is that it's linked to YAF table profile provider and users can't use anything else.

For me it's completely useless as I have data stored as a delimited string for my custom providers.

I think that the solution compromises the .NET providers idea itself, but it will be useful for a lot of users who use standard YAF providers.
